TV with manual tranny? Does anyone?

I towed with sticks for years before I got old and lazy.

No need to feel guilty.  Auto transmissions have gotten so good that they actually outperform manual trannies at both towing capability and reliability. The ease of use is icing on the cake.

Newer automatics in trucks are 5 or 6 speeds.  So thats plenty of gears to keep the motor in the sweet spot for power.  With todays ECMs and TCMs automatics for the most part are superior to manuals.  Thats the main reason Ram is the last truck builder that offers a manual.

He said he's talking about a 2000 F350, that came with a 4 speed auto.
